Regardless of one’s current methods or beliefs, yoga and spirituality offer remedies for all problems—provided they are practiced without expectations or desires. Through yogic sleep, everything begins to resolve naturally.
Interestingly, the mind has an innate fascination with mystery. As soon as a mystery is unraveled, the mind compels us to seek something new. This is why the universe and the divine are infinite.
In stillness, the body becomes perfectly stable, and this stability leads effortlessly to meditation. The pause between breaths at the navel center holds immense spiritual significance. By remaining aware of this middle state, all thoughts dissolve. The body achieves stillness, and consequently, the mind becomes serene.
